West Seniors Petition For
Early Exams
BY SUSAN USHER
A majority of West Brunswick High School's senior
class wants to take final exams early, in pan so border
line students will know whether they have passed or
failed before graduation day.
"I think a senior deserves at least 48 hours notice of
whether he is going to pass or fail after taking an ex
am," senior Lauren Boytc told the Brunswick County
Board of Education Monday night. Boyte is the author
of a petition she presented to the board signed by a ma
jority of the school's 217-mcmber class. The petitioners
ask that seniors to be allowed to take their exams
Wednesday through Friday, June 2-4.
The current June 4, 7 and 8 exam schedule would
have some seniors possibly taking their last exam at
12:30 p.m. Tuesday before graduation on Wednesday
evening.
'That gives teachers less than 24 hours to grade ex
ams and notify students," Boyte said. "I understand the
alternative for teachers (who haven't been able to notify
a student sooner) would be to pull the student out of
line before we march."
Superintendent Ralph J. Johnston said no decision
would be made without first consulting with high
school principals. However, he said that the "spirit" of
the state's 180-day school atlcndancc requirement
would be met if seniors participated in graduation prac
tice at least a half day each June 7 and 8.
If seniors at West Brunswick arc allowed to take ex
ams early, the same privilege will be extended to se
niors at South Brunswick and North Brunswick.
Board member William Fairley asked, "Arc we just
writing off the last two days of school? That's what it
sounds like to me."
"Yes and no," responded fellow board member
Polly Russ.
Under the original school calendar for 192-93, she
noted, all high schools would have held graduation ex
ercises June 12 in Brunswick Community College's
Odell Williamson Auditorium. When the school board
responsed to students' pleas to allow graduation to be
held instead on individual school campuses, the gradua
tion date was moved to June 9, the day after the last day
of school and the last day for exams. The exam sched
ule was not changed.
In making up this year's calendar, an effort was
made to make sure 180 days of school would be sched
uled for seniors. The new schedule also did away with
some teachers having to schedule exams for the same
class twice, once for seniors and then a week later for
underclassmen.
